That's not why the water stays crappy after a big storm. It's the runoff that's the issue. Most of the bigger systems dump 4-5+ inches of rain and it takes a while for the water table to drain off back to normal levels. This was a relatively mild system for New England with nowhere near the rain NY/CT saw. The next time we have any unfavorable wind for the south coast looks like a full week from now so the combo of the big tides and mild conditions should help tremendously.
I didn't stay at a holiday inn but I did just walk down to my dock for almost high tide and it's looking not horrific.
OK as I posted and hope you right and I am wrong! How does that wrestling saying go?
